low-stress ideas for living a deeper shade of green
My dad is the most self-less person I know, and that makes thinking of father’s day gifts extra difficult. While yes, I’m sure he enjoyed my many years of homemade knick-knacks, burnt cookies, and the many poems I used to write, I do my best to find things that my father would use, appreciate or [...]
Hot time in the GD studio this week! It was 95 degrees and the air conditioning vents in the studio aren’t flowing – ahhhhh. We managed to keep our cool and have a great show anyway. ALWAYS fun to have Jeff Yeager, the Ultimate Cheapskate on the line to talk how saving green is GREEN. [...]
We had Green Dude Eco Ed Schwartz back in the studio, so things were a bit more energetic than when it is just us Green Divas. Excellent special report from Brittany Gordon of the EPA about their Team Energy Star campaign to help raise awareness with young folks about saving energy. Green Dude Eco Ed [...]
Maybe I’m just a fickle gal, but it seems that I fall in love with the last car I test drive. The Chevy Volt is my 4th week-long review ride, and as of now, it is at the top of my real-world, eco-ride list. Sandy totaled two of our cars (with one tree!), and my [...]
Our technology fairy didn’t fall asleep this week, but she was a little late to the party! We missed the first 10 minutes of the show, which was mostly witty BS. The show starts in the middle of our initial conversation about the Chevy Volt I’ve been test-driving and reviewing this week. We had some [...]
This week instead of having our usual show we decided to devote the whole hour to reviewing all the green living products that have been patiently waiting for our witty commentary. Important note: we are never compensated for the reviews, and we only review products that we like and want to recommend. So, while we don’t get [...]
Inspired by our recent Earth Day radio show, I did a fun Care2 post about 25 ways to celebrate Earth Day without buying anything. Here’s a little bit of that rant: Make it a non-Consumer Earth Day AND become a smart, eco-friendly consumer all year round There are millions of new wonderful ‘green living’ gadgets, [...]
April 22 – Earth Day. Hmmm? An important day for sure to create and increase awareness … to assure respect and love for Mother Earth continues from one generation to the next. I just don’t want Earth Day to become another Veterans Day, Mother’s Day or What-have-you DAY; a day we set aside once a year to remind folks of what’s [...]
Yes, we had a fun show nibbling on Crunchies, healthy, freeze-dried, gluten and sugar-free snacks. Happy Earth Week Green Divas & Dudes! This weeks show was full of ideas for ways to appreciate mama earth — for Earth Day and every day. We learned a LOT about cork — what a great resource and why we [...]
Oh how we love our pets; whether it’s a pooch or a kitty kitty, one with feathers or scales, or others that hop, crawl, squeak, creep or climb … they bring joy into our lives. At the moment I have 3-cats. They, like momma are all green pets and love up cycling! Awesome Kitty Hammock [...]
